Apparently they do, although I won't be able to tell you about it as Garmin PR ignored my request to try it out… I will have some other GPS gadgets hopefully to play with tho'

Ben, it's a shame both you and my sister aren't single – she'll be in Beijing at the same time and you could've compared iPhone 3Gs or something.

The ones I tried were – have some coming (hopefully) for review.

May go for a solar charger, although I will be inside the stadiums a fair bit so majoring on battery solutions.

You also might want a FlipVideo? Quick, cheap easy video recording — and it uses batteries.

Solar charger? Might not be that sunny though.

I've just got myself a Celly Laptop case – love it, and it doesn't scream 'laptop' lots of pockets – and waterproof too! Ideal for random rain showers! Lots of cubby holes too..
